Warm water for COWS to drink in win
ter is beginning to be understood as one
of the essentials in successful winter
dairying. Even drinking ice-cold water
in winter so chills the cows system and
lowers its temperature as to cause a
marked diminution in the flow Of milk.
Exposure to piercing cold draft of air
on leaving the stable and going but a
short distance to drink plainly shows ia
the shrinkage of milk. Hence it pays
to not only warm the water for the COWS
to drink but to give it to them in the
stable, or under shelter, in severe win
ter weather. These things, which have
q solid foundation in common sense,
have not been thought of or discussed,
much less practiced. until within a few
years past. But they are destined to
become Of universal acceptance, and no
intelligent dairyman will think of dis.
pensing with anything that adds to the
cows comfort.

to understand it. for he hung his head
